6. In order to turn unit on, press the ON/OFF button. The red “ON” light will
illuminate and the word “ON” will appear in the upper right hand corner of the
LCD, indicating that the brewing cycle has begun. Hot water will be dispensed
gently and evenly through the coffee grounds.
Note: If you prefer to use the timer to pre-set the coffeemaker, see the "Using the
Timer Control" section.
7. To pour a cup of coffee before the brew cycle is complete, simply remove
the carafe from the warming plate and pour (see “Sneak-A-Cup® Interrupt
Feature”). Brewing will continue but dripping will automatically pause. Return
the carafe to the warming plate within 1 minute; dripping will resume.
Caution: To prevent injury when utilizing Sneak-A-Cup® Interrupt feature,
replace carafe within 1 minute of removing during brewing process.
8. Upon completion of the brew cycle, wait until dripping has stopped before
removing the carafe. The carafe lid should be kept in place to facilitate safe
serving.
9. To brew another carafe of coffee, turn unit OFF and wait 10 minutes to allow
heating element to cool.
Important: If the unit is not allowed to cool before immediate repeated use,
water placed in water reservoir may become overheated and a spray of steam
may be released from the opening, creating a risk of burns.
10. When not in use, unplug the base from the wall outlet. Allow the unit to cool
completely before cleaning (see Care and Cleaning Instructions).
BREWING A SECOND POT OF COFFEE
As mentioned above, it is recommended that the coffeemaker should be OFF for
10 minutes between cycles, in order to allow unit to cool. While the unit is OFF,
dispose of the used coffee filter and rinse the carafe, permanent filter and the
removable filter basket in water. Then repeat the brewing procedure.
SNEAk-A-CUP® INTERRUPT FEATURE
You can pour a cup of coffee while coffee is brewing without leaking from the
brew basket. When finished pouring coffee, place the carafe under brew basket.
The brewing process continues.
Important: To avoid possible overflow after removing the carafe, be sure to
replace the carafe under the filter basket within 1 minute to prevent the basket
from overflowing.
USING THE TIMER CONTROL
Your coffeemaker has a built in multifunction timer. The following sections
describe the proper use of the timer.
Setting The Clock
To set the clock, simply press the HOUR and MIN buttons. First press the HOUR
button until the desired hour has been reached. Make sure the proper “AM/PM”
indicator is shown on the left side of the LCD display. Press the MIN button until
the desired minutes have been reached. You may press and hold the HOUR or
MIN buttons to display the correct time more rapidly.
Note: Unplugging the unit will reset the clock to 12:00.
How to Use
This appliance is intended for household use only.
BEFORE FIRST USE
Warning: To reduce risk of fire or electric shock, do not immerse cord, plug or
appliance in water or any other liquid.
1. Before preparing coffee in your new coffeemaker, thoroughly clean the carafe,
carafe lid and removable filter basket in warm, soapy water.
Rinse and dry. Replace disassembled parts.
Note: The removable filter basket must be placed into the
coffeemaker with the two handles, located on the sides of
the filter basket, aligning with the two notches on the inside
of the unit
(C). Press the filter basket down until it clicks into
place.
2. Clean the inside of the coffeemaker by brewing two full
carafes of tap water (see Brewing Instructions). Do not
place permanent filter or coffee in the removable filter
basket for this initial cleaning.
Note: At the end of the first brewing cycle, turn the coffeemaker off and wait ten
minutes for the appliance to cool. Turn unit on and brew second carafe of cool
water.
BREWING INSTRUCTIONS
Note: The display on the clock will flash when you plug in the unit. You may set
the clock at any time (see “Setting The Clock”) before or after brewing. Setting the
clock will not affect normal brewing operation.
1. Place the coffeemaker on a flat, level surface. Plug the unit into an AC electrical
outlet.
2. Open the lid by using the lip located on top of the coffeemaker.
3. Place a permanent filter into the removable filter basket. Measure one level
tablespoon of drip or regular ground coffee for each cup of coffee desired. For
stronger or milder coffee, adjust amount of grounds to suit your taste.
Note: We recommend using coffee ground specifically for automatic drip
coffeemakers.
4. Fill the carafe with cold water and pour it into the water reservoir to the
desired level. No less than two cups are recommended. Place the carafe on the
warming plate.
Important: Always use fresh, cool water in your appliance. Warm water or other
liquids, except as listed in the Care and Cleaning Instructions, may cause damage
to the appliance.
Note: The amount of brewed coffee will always be less than the amount of water
placed into the coffeemaker, since about 10% is absorbed by the coffee grounds
and filter.
5. Close the Lid.
